Minuteman Leader Shawna Forde and Accomplices Pointing Fingers At Each Other to Avoid Prison Time for Murders!

Shawna Forde was in court Monday with her fellow accomplices, Gunny Bush and Albert Gaxiola, for the murders of 9 year old Brisenia Flores and her Dad. Each of their lawyers began setting the groundwork so each defendant could try to pass off blame for the murders on the others.

Pima County Superior Court, Judge John Leonardo agreed Monday to try Jason Bush separately from his co-defendants. Leonardo scheduled Bush's trial for Nov. 2, 2010, and the trial of Shawna Forde and Albert Gaxiola for Jan. 4, 2011. Forde's and Gaxiola's attorneys want their clients to get their own separate trials, too, but Leonardo declined to split them up, defense attorney Eric Larsen said. Larsen, one of Forde's attorneys, said he has been given permission to ask for a severance again in the future.

Forde's and Gaxiola's attorneys believe separate trials are needed because it would be impossible for a jury to believe one of the defendants "without excluding the defense" of the other. According to court documents, Larsen said if Gaxiola points the finger at Forde, she would want to tell jurors about Gaxiola's drug ties and convictions. She also would point out a friend of Gaxiola's, who has not been charged in this case, "most fits the description" of the man who was seen with Gaxiola "scouting the victims' residence."

Even if Gaxiola and Forde's defenses aren't "mutually exclusive," the trials should be separate because Gaxiola would probably want to "inflame the passions" of the jury by telling them about Forde's association with the border defense movement, Larsen said. Gaxiola's attorneys, Jack Lansdale and Steve West, contend Gaxiola wasn't inside the house when the victims were shot. They want a separate trial because Bush told police he shot the victims under duress from Gaxiola, and they believe Forde probably will say the same thing.

Dee, have you ever heard of Oin Oakstar? Did you know he was the first suspect in this case, and that he is 6'5" tall and weighs 350 pounds? He fits Gonzalez' description of the main perpetrator perfectly, whereas Jason Bush does not. How much do ya wanta bet his GF, Sandy Stroup, is a short, fat white woman? But then you'd KNOW THAT if you'd bothered to read the PCSO's media release!

Laine,Let's now forget the bullet in Gunny's leg from Brisenia's mother's gun.

From what I've heard, the prosecution has a mountain of evidence against Shawna and Gunny.

There is zero doubt that the right people are incarcerated.

The only thing that bothers me is that those who commit hate crimes against latinos are not frequently penalized to the fullest degree as other crimes are penalized. That is what happened in the Luis Ramirez case and in the Chilean Student case. And that is Very Very Wrong!!

And don't forget the cold blooded murder of Francisco Dominguez, murdered by Border Patrol Agent Nicholas Corbett in Arizona. And only in Arizona was the prosecution unable to seat an unbiased jury who refused to consider the evidence.

What "mountain of evidence?" A coerced confession, possibly made under torture, is all the PCSO has on Shawna. No circumstantial, no DNA, no weapons, no fingerprints, none of the above. You can't make a case out of an involuntary confession. Read a law book on evidence. Shawna will go free!And for the record, Shawna herself has told me she dislikes racists. But then all you know about her is what you read in the lamestream media.

About that bullet in Jason Bush's leg...where is it now? Was it taken out and kept as evidence? After all, if it came from Gina Gonzalez' gun, it would be traceable to that gun, wouldn't it? Bullet, bullet, who's got the bullet? Does anyone know? And if the blood left at the crime scene has JB's DNA on it, would that mean he was the gunman? It would prove he was at the scene and he got shot. Apply some logic to this case instead of media-inflamed hatred. We probably won't know for some time what really happened, so why assume everyone in custody is guilty, just because the media did a good propaganda job?

About Me

Hello. My name is Dee. I live in Texas. I am an American. My ethnicity is Hispanic. Many would call me Mexican or Mexican American. Some call me a female, PRO-Immigration Reform - Ann Coulter.
My parents, their parents and theirs were all born in the USA.
My husband and I have been happily married for over 20 years. My husband is a big, Irish-American. We have two grown sons. We are happy and my family is doing well. I have been employed as a mid level manager at a very large, well known corporation for over 25 years, now recently retired.
In May, 2006, after the Immigration Marches, I started seeing the cable news channels talking very negatively about illegal immigration. I found many internet sites were talking negatively about legal and illegal immigration issues as well.
Since I do research on the job, I started conducting Immigration research on the web. I joined several Immigration websites and I researched others. I´ve learned so much about Immigration issues over the last year.
What you don´t see on the internet is the Mexican American perspective.
I am here to share my views with you.
